Green Light, by Tom Barber. Read by Bill Murray.
Alone in an apartment in New York City, a frightened young woman is packing her bags in a hurry. She then heads straight for her car parked around the corner, only two other people in the vicinity who’re just stopping off to pick up something to eat on their way home from work—NYPD Detectives Sam Archer and Alice Vargas. After a dramatic and tragic confrontation, Archer is drawn into the case, and soon learns the beautiful blond girl isn’t the only one being hunted. People connected to her are vanishing all over New York City; no one knows what’s happened to them, or where they’ve gone. As he and his fellow Counter-Terrorism Bureau detectives search for answers, they become embroiled in a vicious gang war that goes back over seventy years. The number of vanished keeps on rising. And soon, Archer is added to that list.
Another Sam Archer adventure filled with intrigue
As always, Sam gets into impossible situations and barely survives. In Green Light, it rapidly becomes apparent that the presumed perpetrators are not the real enemy. Through many twists and turns the real complex plot(s) is revealed, with plenty of violence, camaraderie and touches of love and compassion along the way. I feel that Tom Barber went a little overboard in the complexity of the overall plot which required several pages of repetitive text. However, I really enjoyed th story and found it hard to put down.
